  • @2ndshiftaudio300

    I'm working on making this for my 20' pontoon boat right now. But, the boat is a little heavier. So I'm drilling the wheel axle holes on the jack to 5/8" And using a 5/8" axle. It will make rolling even easier. And more precise. I think. I'm also gonna weld up a trailer latch for my atv to move it around. I use the atv in tight spaces. Thanks for the design. I'm just beefing it up a little.

    • @tigerace351
      @tigerace351 Před 4 měsíci +1

      I’d like to see how easily you were able to move your boat. I need to do the same for my 17’ bowrider but thinking it might be too heavy, plus I have to move mine over packed dirt in an alley. I’ve seen 3-4 people all help push while 1 guy at the front steers on the original plastic wheel on smooth concrete. Do you think same could be done with this mod, maybe 12” wheels? 1 guy steers and pulls while 3 at the back push? My boat is 1,800 lbs with an aluminum trailer. Don’t know total but I’d guess right at 2,000. I need to do this to get boat nose in, into my back yard to service it. Thanks.

  • @stuartfact8361
    @stuartfact8361 Před 9 měsíci +1

    This is a great idea, thanks for sharing!! I’d love to use it, but I park on a pretty steep incline and need a solid foot to secure the trailer to keep it from rolling. I guess I could have two jacks, but that is just more complicated.

    • @gigmaresh8772
      @gigmaresh8772 Před 6 měsíci

      2 of those little yellow wheel chocks . . . And connect them together with cheap dog chain just far enough apart to snug the tires, then a length to bolt them to the frame

  • @narkfam958
    @narkfam958 Před 4 měsíci +5

    To build the modified off-road capable trailer dolly, the presenter used the following parts:
    1. **10-inch long, half-inch size bolt**: Serves as the axle for the new wheel setup.
    2. **Lock washer**: Used to secure the bolt and prevent it from loosening.
    3. **Nut**: Fits onto the bolt to secure the wheel assembly.
    4. **Four flat washers**: Placed at various points in the assembly to ensure smooth operation and distribute pressure evenly.
    5. **Two pieces of half-inch PVC**: Used as spacers to ensure the wheel aligns properly and rotates freely.
    6. **Two half-inch black iron pipe nipples**: Threaded on both ends, these serve as part of the handle assembly for maneuvering the dolly.
    7. **Two half-inch malleable tees**: Used in the handle assembly for grip and leverage.
    8. **One five-foot piece of black iron pipe**: Threaded on both ends, forms the main handle for pushing or pulling the trailer.
    9. **10-inch pneumatic wheel**: Chosen for its size and air-filled design to smoothly navigate over uneven terrain and obstacles.
    10. **Copper or black iron spacers**: Additional spacers for precise wheel fitting and rotation.
    These materials were selected for their durability, availability, and the practicality of assembling a robust off-road trailer dolly. The emphasis was on using standard parts that can be easily sourced from home improvement stores like Home Depot or Lowe's.

    • @GwinnettLawns
      @GwinnettLawns  Před 6 měsíci +2

      They’re about an inch but if you watch the video I tell you depending on the wheels you’ll have to play around with it a little bit and also it’s going to depend on what brand of Jack you originally got for the trailer so it’s going to vary.
